Reviews
  • Aiptcomics.com: An action movie first and foremost. Michael Jai White delivers the goods as the hero who can take out villains with whatever is handy and have a funny quip when he is finished. The story is fast paced, exciting, and plays to its strengths. It is the type of entertaining fluff there is not enough of nowadays.
  • JBSpins.com: If you enjoy beatdowns and shoot-outs, it is solidly entertaining, in an unfussy way. Recommended for fans of White and the genre.
  • Thelastthingisee.com: Supplies solid action, and plenty of it. Coasts on Michael Jai White’s charm, a playful tone, and endearing goofiness.
